Hmmm.. most apps use MAX_PATH or PATH_MAX, but Scid
seems to use "512", so filename length is probably not the problem.
src/common.h:
--
// File-related Types
typedef char fileNameT [512];
typedef uintfileLengthT;

Can it be that there is a maximum allowed path length?
When I try to open a file from
C:\Users\Rulla\Bernis Dateien\Schach\Eroeffnungen\A57-A59 Wolgagambit
I get the error message "Error opening index file".
When I open the same file from
C:\Users\Rulla\Desktop\Schach
... no problem!
